Mischa Barton was voluntarily taken to a hospital early Thursday morning after police responded to reports of a disturbance at her West Hollywood home, People reports.

Officers reportedly visited Barton's home at 7:15 a.m., following multiple calls of a disturbance. The exact nature of the alleged disturbance is unknown, though police sources have confirmed that the former O.C. star was later taken to an area hospital.

Sergeant Duncan of West Hollywood Sheriff’s Department, told People that the actress was “fully clothed” and “speaking in coherent statements." Barton, who turned 31 on January 24, is said to have "willingly" agreed to go to the hospital.

Other sources told the magazine that Barton had been celebrating her birthday with friends on Wednesday night and appeared to be in good spirits. While some outlets are claiming that she was taken in for a mental evaluation, that information has not been confirmed.
